I have a cox router downstairs and cannot get internet in my room on the 2nd floor. Does this device extend between floors?

it will work if both devices are on the same circuit breakers. most houses have different circuit breaks for floors, thus it will not work. Hope it helps

My wifi is located downstairs and the kids can be upstairs on the other side of the house with no problems. haven't tested exactly how far they can go, but hope this helps!

Not unless you know his password. The extender instructions say that the extender needs to be near the wifi modem to get best signal. Mine was in another room and barely got any signal. I don't recommend buying this product for that. Don't be cheap just buy you some internet;-)

Our router is upstairs in a back bedRoom. We setup the Amped Wireless booster downstairs under the stairwell and it worked to boost the signal throughout the whole house. In fact, I get a stronger signal from the Amped booster than I do from the router two rooms way.

That is exactly what I did. It sits up stairs in the middle of the house. Router is downstairs at one end of the house. I was having issues getting wifi upstairs to the opposite side of the house. Now I connect to this instead and have no issues having great wifi upstairs or downstairs. Can have issues if portable device is attached to upstairs(this device) and device is on opposite floor. This has not been an issue for my family of 5 or our devices. Works great!

My daughter had it in her room upstairs and it connects to the router downstairs in the opposite side of the 3400 sqf home. I guess it depends on the strength of the signal.

this is NOT a range extender, this a WIFI Router it has to be connected directly to the modem with a LAN cable to work.

I live in a large concrete home and get a good signal all over the house. Even outside or downstairs in my shop thru 4" solid concrete floor. You might try another laptop to isolate whether it is the laptop or the router.

1. @ Emily D. Wollen, This device works great throughout my apartment. I live in an apartment, and I have yet to have an issue being in other rooms. I am an IT professional, and this little guy is one of two routers in my home. I apartment is on the first floor, but in the back of the building. And yet I get great service outside on the front side of my brick apartment building. It will work.

I have tried with 2 floor and no problem but as per theory if room/ floor has many walls or obstacles then range will be bit less. In that case you can keep router in most open space.

Yes. I did this downstairs with a second adapter to switch Ethernet to multiple devices. The first one upstairs gets Ethernet directly from my router.

No the extender can be placed wherever you need to extend the signal in your place. I have my router upstairs and the extender downstairs. Signal downstairs is great for smart TV and all devices down there while router is used for upstairs.

Not at all. Our DSL gateway is on the top floor of the house. This repeater is on the bottom floor and on the other end~~on a completely different circuit.

The distance between my wifi and the router is more then 12 feet. Also there is a wall between rooms Ive had no problems with since purchase. I hop ed this is helpful to you in your decision.

Do you plug this in next to the router or move it to another room? My router is upstairs but I need it too work in the downstairs bedroom and hopefully basement.
